I installed Cygwin on some Windows 7 x64 client nodes (v3.2.3) and was in the process of removing it. Because I cannot modify CIFS/SAMBA shares or change the puppet service to run as a domain user, I'm basically reduced to getting the installers for each package on the machine prior to installing them. I was just using simple file types for this. Therefore, as part of the uninstallation of Cygwin, I was trying to remove the installer as well. The file is quite large, clocking in close to 2GB. Is there anything i can do to increase the amount of memory available to the agent or somehow avoid this error?
